Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They spend around ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and in reality several podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have obtained substantial healthcare training with a concentration on complications concerning the feet and ankles. They are instructed to address conditions ranging from general conditions for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more complex such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical training which supply them the skill vital to carry out surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it possible for a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and minimize the risk of countless issues which the feet normally encounter.
